7 companies join forces to create the “Bavarian AM Cluster”
Unique about this cooperation is the immediate proximity of all partners and institutions to each other as the association’s premises will be located on the Garching campus in the same building as those of...
Parts On Demand and AM-Flow optimize recognition and processing of 3D printed parts produced in series production
We used to talk about automation after the 3D printing process when it comes to post-processing while in fact, some of the most annoying tasks after the fabrication are identification and sorting. It's like...
DeSimone and his team develop higher speed, multi-material iCLIP 3D printing method
Known for developing Carbon’s DLS 3D printing process, Joseph DeSimone remains a man with multiple hats in the research and scientific world. On the heels of the development of a 3D printed vaccine patch...
3D Printing 17-4 PH, one of the strongest stainless steels, while maintaining its favorable properties is now possible
17-4 PH Stainless Steel is a precipitation hardening martensitic stainless steel that is typically seen in applications requiring high strength and a modest level of corrosion resistance. Described as a material with the highest...
GKN Aerospace and Northrop Grumman achieve their largest Titanium 3D Printed Aerostructure Component
Imagine a component that measures 8 feet (2.5 meters) and processed from approximately 100 pounds (45 kg) of titanium. This is exactly the type of additive manufacturing production I would like to see by...
